"What I like most about Oracle Service Bus is that you can use it for many integrations. For example, you can use it for on-premises to on-premises integrations, on-premises to cloud integrations, and cloud to on-premises integrations."
"The solution is quite stable overall. We haven't witnessed any performance issues so far."
"It was very good at supporting high transactions, up to 300 transactions per second."
"The most valuable feature is the adapters."
"Overall it is a pretty good solution."
"Supports multiple protocol technologies and web services."
"Its ease of use is valuable. It's very easy to use. It's no code/low code. Oracle Middleware products are also rich in adapters."

"It's not easy to troubleshoot and we still can't make it work."
"It needs more samples. Also, the dependency on Maven should be removed."
"Community editions need more attention."
"It would be beneficial if users could navigate the UI easily without extensive training or learning curves."
"The payment system needs improvement."
"MuleSoft isn't as mature as some other integration technologies out there like IBM WebSphere. There's room for growth, and MuleSoft is working toward that."
"Mule ESB isn't as secure as IBM. Financial companies go with IBM for that reason."
"The initial setup could be more straightforward."
"The support for GraphQL needs to be improved, and the response time for global support could be faster."
"We have faced a problem with the heap memory side, but that is stable now."

"It would be ideal if they could optimize it a bit."
"The weak point of OSB is the single point of failure."
"An area for improvement in Oracle Service Bus is the roadmap for its product launch. Currently, it's unclear, so Oracle should develop a roadmap for version 12c, so people can see what's coming out of that version of Oracle Service Bus. Cloud hosting is an additional feature I'd like to see in the next release of Oracle Service Bus."
"It's very complex and hard to learn. There's a steep learning curve."
"It needs to support more adapters, because the integration points keep changing and new things keep coming up. It also needs to be more scalable."
